Roberto Cavalli Uomo La Notte

I love Roberto Cavalli Uomo line. So blind bought this one... Then found out that this is a limited edition run. So don't wait too long to buy it, or you might miss out. And have to get it second hand at a ridiculous price from eBay or worse. It smells very different from the original Uomo. The leather and pepper notes are more than noticeable in this...It's like...Dove's men arm deodorant or Sauvage mixed with Uomo and you'll have this thing. It's not bad, nor does it wow me like the two before this one. You can hardly pick up the top notes(Bergamot & lavender)...All I get is the leather, sage and pepper notes, with a hint of sweetness. It's a dark fragrance that you should only wear at night during hot days, all day during cold/rainy weather. I used six sprays...both wrist, back & front of my neck, chest, and front of my shirt. Will I buy this again? No. What's the strength of this? EDT. Does this fragrance enter BEAST MODE, good, just okay or weak sauce at best? Just okay(It's night time scent). Can you use it as a unisex scent? No. Am I willing to trade this fragrance? No(It's a limited run frag. I'll keep mine because this will be discontinued). Should You Skip It, Sample It First or Blind Buy It? Sample it first. Ask someone who already has it for a 2-5ML decant. Or try it out at a Roberto Cavalli Boutique or Sephora. Very similar to these fragrances; Roberto Cavalli Uomo or Roberto Cavalli Uomo Silver Essence mixed Christian Dior Sauvage. Is it the old, new formulation? New. What's its availability; in production, limited edition run or discontinued? Limited edition run. SKU Number: 3614225327698 Batch Number: 8142 (Production Date: 05/22/2018) Age: 25+ From: ediscountperfumes(eBay) Size: 100ML Scent: 3/5 (Okay). Value: 3.5/5 ($49.39). Sillage: 2.5/5 (It's ok, about two feet ). Longevity: 4/5 (Eight hours). Creativity: 3.5/5 (It smells like Sauvage By Christian Dior had sex on an old leather couch with Uomo By Roberto Cavalli... And nine months later this bastard came into the world). Projection: 3/5 (About 90 minutes tops, after that it fades to a skin scent). Versatility: 4/5 (Spring and Summer night time scent, all day during the Fall and Winter seasons, Anywhere). Compliments: 3/5 (Okay). Hope this helps someone. And until next time, I'll catch you on the flipside.

As everyone has already said, this is very similar to Prive, particularly in the dry down. La Notte leans more into cardamom and leather with a heavy dose of tonka, whereas Prive has a slightly fruitier, boozy profile particularly within the first hour of application. In terms of which one I prefer, it's hard to say and it probably changes depending on my mood. Sometimes I prefer the slight booziness of Prive, sometimes I prefer the lovely leather and tonka combo in La Notte. I would say that you don't need to own both as they would be used for the same situations and they're very similar. If I had to pick one, I'd probably opt for La Notte just because Prive does lean a bit more into the youthful camp and boozy fragrances aren't for everyone. Oh, and I just have to say this: The 3rd review from the bottom mentioned that this smells like Sauvage and RC's Uomo. This has absolutely no resemblance to Sauvage. At all. This might just be the most wildly inaccurate comparison I've ever seen on Fragrantica. If that comparison puts you off, don't listen to it because rest assured, there's no Sauvage to be found in La Notte, thankfully. A really solid fragrance that I'll enjoy wearing in the cooler evenings. If you like Prive, this will likely be a safe bet.

To me (off skin) this opens, surprisingly, with a Issey Miyake "Blue Astral" Lime/Black Pepper vibe with the Uomo DNA in the back. Lime is not listed so this is likely the Bergamot playing tricks mixing with the Leather to create the accord. Dry down is a smooth, slightly powdery Cardamom with with the Sage, Patchouli and Lavender underneath. At times I get a Plum or Dates kind of vibe, almost syrupy in the far dry down. You can tell the Uomo DNA is here throughout however to me La Notte distances itself in the line. Like the others the compliment factor is here as well as sex appeal especially for someone who likes ones like The One Royal Night, The One Luminous Night, Blue Astral and others in that group. This lacks the Voilet that the original and Silver have and IMHO I think it would have been a good addition, but I'm sure the perfumor tested it in one of the prototypes and found this to be the best composition, at least to them. Off paper this comes across much different to me, still great, but different. Much more Cardamom throughout with a clearer Bergamot. Much more of a sweet Plum or Date vibe as well. All in all a great scent, best performance in the line to me. I'd put this 2nd behind Uomo Silver then Deep Desire then Uomo original.

The last time I had a bottle of CH Men Prive was four years ago. It was a great juice but because I have explored other fragrances along the way, I forgot about it and I thought I misplaced it with half juice left. After curiously reading the reviews, I became interested of blind buying this one so I can have a replacement for my CH Men Prive. Fortunately, it was a successful blind buy. I guess most of the reactions from fellow reviewers before me are no different with my initial impression and I am echoing some of those. This is a little sweeter (which I like) with less booziness and a much better performer than CH Men Prive. Obviously, I like this one better than CHMP. It's my second Roberto Cavalli in my collection and to me, this is better than the original RC Uomo. I also read somewhere that this has been discontinued so I guess I am quite lucky to get a brand new bottle for my collection. My nose gives this gorgeous juice a 9/10 “Let's spread the scents of peace and kindness. The two most beautiful fragrance in the world that will cost you nothing and will get you a totally different kind of compliments” 🙏

This is an absolute masterpiece in my opinion. I am so happy that I was able to get a hold of a bottle recently for a great price. The way this scent changes and evolves is absolutely stunning. This is one of those uber rare bottles that I almost feel guilty for wearing. The only complaint of mine is that the longevity is not the best for this particular style of fragrance, but it's still excellent for an EDT. I only have four other EDT's in my collection that can outperform this and they are all huge performers (Kenzo Homme Intense, 24 Gold, 24 Gold Oud, Tauer Desert Air Marocain). I do wish this was an EDP and had better longevity, but I still get around 7 hours from it. This has a bit of the classic Uomo DNA in the opening, but is overshadowed by a beautiful medley of cardamom, sage, and leather. Just stunning juice.
